    I played with my settings the first couple months then ended up going back to the way they set them. Needed up being perfect for the 1200 extra pounds I have on my truck.

    Swaybar or no? Never spent much time in/around Houston. Lots of time in Dallas and in Austin.

    No bar. Barely notice it’s gone, except that now the front end fully articulates so I get stuck less often.
    ( plus I learned how to do the faux locker using the abs)

    Poor mans locker

    Touch the brake lightly while pressing gas to move. When a wheel spins, the abs engages, stopping the wheel spin and transferring power back to the non spinning wheel. Obviously not as good as a locker, and requires a delicate touch, but has gotten me out without having to winch a whole bunch of times.

    Could set the ebrake slightly also, for almost the same effect.

    Never tried with ebrake! I know regular brake works some on front wheels but never thought about the rears.

    Camping trip with @JimSnell and @TexMeg89 was a success! Forecast was for clear skies...and it snowed. Got down into the 20s at night.

    Meh cruiser is going to get an LS way in the future.

    On another note, does anyone know how discount tires certificate program works with AWD vehicles? I assume if I get puncture, I pay for 3 new ones (assuming they aren't new) then they replace the punctured one for free?

    I dont have first hand experience, but I'd assume a cert is a cert. But they're probably aren't going to cover all 4 just because one went bad and you need all 4 to be close to the same size of each other to avoid awd issues. Your synopsis sounds correct to me. You'd be responsible for the other 3 but they're yours to keep or sell as spares etc.
